Gary Michael Opper, a former director of credits and receivables at CSK Auto Corporation (CSK), pleaded guilty to a criminal information, filed under seal on March 19, 2009, and unsealed on April 7, 2009, charging him with one count of obstruction of proceedings before agencies (18 U.S.C. § 1505) stemming from an attempt to thwart a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) investigation into CSK’s accounting practices.
According to the criminal information, Opper made material false statements during an internal investigation of CSK’s accounting practices knowing that the information would be passed on to the SEC, which was conducting an investigation into misstatements of CSK’s expenses and income from 2001-2004 with regard to certain vendor allowances in CSK’s books and records.
Opper’s sentencing has been rescheduled for January 4, 2010 at 3:30 p.m in Courtroom 502.
